Embarking on a freshly minted alliance with adidas, CLOT, founded by Edison Chen and Kevin Poon, unearths its first marvel, a collaborative sneaker crafted hand in hand with Neighborhood and adidas, venturing into an innovative realm where urban streetwear collides with classic athletic aesthetics. While the expansive capsule is anticipated to be released in 2024, this three-way collaboration between CLOT, Neighborhood, and adidas graces us earlier, revealing a revamped adidas Superstar.
Diving into the aesthetics of the CLOT x Neighborhood x adidas Superstar, the teams endow the sneaker with a plush black suede that impeccably drapes the toe box while simultaneously honoring the iconic rubber shell toe cap by artfully dissecting and repositioning it. This meticulous detail not only maintains but enhances the original sneaker’s persona, marrying the old with the new. Distressed detailing caresses the toe cap, rendering a nostalgically vintage finish, while a subtle black mesh replaces the conventional leather upper, providing a contrastingly modern vibe. The classic Three Stripes are masterfully stitched into the mesh with a zig-zag pattern, enhancing the minimalist aura, and atop the black suede heels, Neighborhood and CLOT branding carve their identities crisply in white, affirming the marriage of these monumental streetwear titans. Below sits a rigid, angular outsole finished in a soft cream shade.
The CLOT x Neighborhood x adidas Superstar will release October 14, 2023, exclusively through Juice Store online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $140.
